1 week agoI realise now that my view on mental health overdiagnosis was divisive. We all need better evidence | Wes Streeting
I gave a simple answer, that yes, I did think there was overdiagnosis, that too many people were being written off, and too many people weren't getting the support they needed. I was then deluged with messages and emails of both enthusiastic agreement and visceral disagreement including from mental health clinicians on both sides of the argument. One angry patient messaged to say: Far from overdiagnosis, I can't even get an appointment to get a diagnosis.
